Summary

"On April 20th 2010, the BP Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded off the Gulf of Mexico, killing eleven workers and spewing 200 million barrels of oil into the ocean. DIRTY ENERGY brings to light the personal stories of the Louisiana fishermen and local residents directly impacted by the worst environmental disaster in U.S. history. Filmmaker Bryan D. Hopkins gains intimate access to the lives and homes of these people, as they struggle to rebuild their lives and contend with emerging health crises related to toxic dispersants used to clean up the spill. DIRTY ENERGY points a poignant portrait of the human cost of the calamity, and the systematic failure by BP and the U.S. government to effectively and transparently manage the environmental impact." -- Unedited summary from container
